Looks like the 300C aint all that reliable, guess that should be expected when the most unreliable domestic and import join forces.

Yes, I think so. From thecarconnection.com :

Imagine if we treated relatives this way: two families, one in Philly and one in L.A., will receive new Dodge Magnum R/T wagons because they were willing to bury their old family vehicles in their yards. The Rosenfelds of Hacienda Heights, California, and the Dooners in Morton, Pennsylvania, each responded to contests advertised in June that gave the Magnums as a prize for deep-sixing the existing cars. The Rosenfelds sunk a '98 Camry, while the Dooners buried a '97 Mercury Mountaineer. Both families bid farewell with mock funerals, complete with pallbearers, a procession and a tombstone bearing the fateful inscription "Rust In Peace."

that Camry can out-last anything DC put out. If they let me sink a car, i'd sink my mom's Nissan Quest. Most problemsome car my family has EVER owned.
